Default Italian Home brewers

During a recent trip to Italy I spent some time with some home brewers
of wine.
Their consensus was that corks were becoming quite inferior construction
materials etc.
They disliked the plastic corks saying they were too difficult for the
home winemaker to use effectively/easily.

Their solution was to use crown caps (like beer/pop bottles).

- Perhaps something to look into?
